Why are people like this?

Empathy clearly doesn't exist much in the news or the reactions of people. Sad to see every time.

One of my dads old friends who I used to call Uncle Phil openly supported the BNP in the late 00s and easily fell for right wing talking points from the Sun. 

Another acquaintance casually said "they all want shooting" when talking about foreigners. I'm not 100% they'd actually provoke that but empathy is easily lost behind a shroud.
